The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Eglise du 12e siècle dépendant de Molesme, de style étranger à la région. Le choeur à chevet plat, flanqué de deux chapelles carrées, et le transept, construits après 1102, tendent vers l'art bourguignon. Vers 1130, construction de deux travées de la nef et des collatéraux, voûtés entre 1145 et 1160. Deux procédés de construction bourguignonne sont employés : la brisure des arcs-doubleaux pour relever leur niveau par rapport aux grandes arcades, et le contre-butement du berceau de la nef par les berceaux transversaux des collatéraux. Les chapiteaux des premières travées sont richement sculptés. L'église a été entièrement restaurée entre 1872 et 1900, et le porche ajouté.

Church of the 12th century dependent on Molesme, of a style foreign to the region. The chevet with a flat east end, flanked by two square chapels, and the transept, constructed after 1102, tend towards Burgundian art. Around 1130, construction of two bays of the nave and the aisles, vaulted between 1145 and 1160. Two procedures of Burgundian construction are employed: the breaking of the ribs to raise their level in relation to the great arcades, and the counter-buttressing of the barrel vault of the nave by the transverse barrel vaults of the aisles. The capitals of the first bays are richly sculpted. The church was entirely restored between 1872 and 1900, and the porch was added.
